Metta (Loving-Kindness Meditation)
An ancient Buddhist meditation practice that cultivates universal love and compassion through progressive well-wishing, starting with self and expanding to all beings.
Sitting in gentle stillness, you begin by holding yourself in the warmth of unconditional acceptance, like sunlight spreading through your heart. This is Metta meditation, an ancient Buddhist practice of cultivating loving-kindness through progressive well-wishing.
From its roots in early Buddhist teachings, Metta has emerged as a powerful method for transforming our relationship with ourselves and others. The practice systematically develops our innate capacity for compassion, dissolving barriers of judgment and fear that separate us from genuine connection.
Sought by meditators, therapists, and anyone seeking emotional healing, Metta offers profound benefits. Practitioners report reduced anxiety, increased empathy, and a natural flowering of joy and peace that ripples outward to touch all relationships.
